The Story Behind House Reminders

Remember that feeling when you got the keys to your first home? The excitement, the possibilities, the pride of ownership. But then reality sets in. The furnace makes a strange noise. The gutters need cleaning. The warranty paperwork is... somewhere? And which contractor was it that did such a good job fixing the fence last year?

House Reminders was born from those exact moments—the overwhelming realization that no one teaches you how to actually manage a home. We started this project after watching too many friends (and ourselves) scramble through junk drawers looking for receipts, forget critical maintenance until something breaks, and wonder "didn't we just have this repaired?"

We built the tool we wish we'd had from day one: a simple, reliable place to track what needs doing, store the important stuff, and remember who actually showed up when you needed help.

Built for Real Life

Here's what we learned in our first years of homeownership—and what House Reminders is designed to solve:

• Memory fails - Six months after the HVAC service, you can't remember if it was September or November. Or which company even came out. House Reminders remembers for you.
• Paperwork disappears - That water heater warranty? The paint color codes? The good contractor's business card? Keep them all in one place, accessible from anywhere.
• Maintenance sneaks up - It's easy to forget the little things until they become expensive things. Get friendly reminders before problems start.
• Good help is hard to find - When you find a trustworthy electrician or reliable plumber, you want to remember them. Store notes about who did great work and who to avoid next time.

Know Where Your Money Goes

Here's something nobody tells you about homeownership: you'll spend money on your house constantly, but you'll rarely know where it all goes. Was that $200 HVAC repair two years ago, or three? How much have you spent on plumbing this year? Is the lawn care service worth the cost?

House Reminders tracks every repair, improvement, and maintenance task—including what you paid. Over time, you'll build a clear picture of your home's true cost of ownership. See spending patterns emerge. Know which systems need the most attention. Budget smarter for next year. And when it's time to sell, you'll have a complete record of everything you've invested in your home.

Think of it as your home's financial memory—the kind that actually remembers everything.
